smoked some bad weed...

[kij]

so a few days ago i smoked some low quality weed (the stuff thats condensed and is dark green) and i feel horrible, unimaginably horrible, i dont know what to do. im positive there was something in it, in my experience theres always something wrong with the lower quality weed, it makes me feel horrible? i cant think clearly, i dont feel like i can do anything right now, im incredibly uncomfortable and for the first time in years i feel suicidal. i never have trouble like this smoking higher quality stuff. i guess the only thing i can do is wait it out. im quite sure there was something in it, whether it was mold or some other drug. has anybody else experienced this, and if so is there anything that you did about it that made it easier to deal with? when i smoked it i felt a sort of rush, so my guess is there was some other drug in it and right now im dealing with withdrawals or the after effects of whatever it was. and dont try to tell me there wasnt anything in it and that im imagining it because ive dealt with amphetamine and opiate withdrawal and it was nothing in comparison to this. god i feel awful i need help ahhhh

You could be just having anxiety and depression due to the weed. It happens to alot of people so it's nothing strange. I very seriously doubt there was anything in your weed and even if there was you wouldnt get withdrawals from one dose. Also since it was a few days ago even the usual drug that people think of when it comes to the old myth of spiked weed which is PCP would have worn off long before now.

Perhaps it had nothing to do with the weed at all? Maybe it was nothing but a coincidence that your feeling like shit now.

You would definitely know if you smoked wet weed (laced with PCP). The effects would be gone by now. I'm saying it's probably all in your head. Condensed and dark green doesn't always mean bad weed either. Low grade weed has given me headaches sometimes (really bad weed, not just outs).

i dont know, i really doubt it isnt related, for a couple of reasons
1. i really feel different, and it seems like it directly coincides with my using that lower quality weed, i dont see why i would all of a sudden get depressed.
2. i cant sleep, no matter how much weed i smoke
3. when i smoke good weed i barely feel it, and what i do feel feels not as good, sort of like the way if feels during withdrawel. personally i find that im very susceptible to withdrawal, if i have a drink or take some adderall one night ill feel like crap for a couple of days after.
4. the way i felt when i smoked it, i felt a very distinct headrush, usually when i smoke weed i feel comfortable, relaxed, a bit quirky but this time when i did it i kept forgetting where i left things a moment earlier, which usually doesnt happen to me, and its not like i smoked a lot of it.
5. ive had this exact same experience before with the lower quality stuff, which is why i usually only smoke higher quality stuff. i can usually tell by the smell of the weed whether its good or not. i remember one time i stayed over at a friends house and smoked some and the next day i was so disoriented that i got lost in ny city, which isnt something that usually happens to me (especially sense that time i was only 4 blocks away from where i needed to go).
6. the rush i got from this weed allowed me to drive a car with ease, usually when im stoned im to anxious too drive, or if i do i find it difficult and i have to really pay attention.

i mean maybe your right, maybe im just being paranoid , but i dont know, music doesnt sound good anymore, im kind of twitchy , to me it seems kind of far fetched that i could start to be depressed and anxious after feeling so good for so long just by chance on the day that i choose to smoke this lower quality weed for the first time in years. whatever it is i guess it will blow over soon anyway and then i can be my merry self again.
i also have family members who smoke only the low quality stuff and they are very screwed up, i cant help thinking that there is a link. the good stuff and the worse stuff make me feel VERY different. I realize that when it comes down to it all of my evidence is subjective, even if i have noticed this problem for years, and that isnt conclusive evidence, but im pretty certain.

i guess you guys are probably right, at this point its mostly in my head but i really do think there was something wrong with that stuff, not that im saying that all low quality weed has something in it, but i think this stuff did.

my main justification for saying there was something wrong with is was that it made me disoriented and forgetful after, almost like i was on benzos or something except i wasnt very sleepy. i dont know, im just curious whether anybody else has experienced this or not.

Any type of weed sucks the joy out of my life and makes me feel suicidal... the ultra strong hydro is probably better coz I hear voices for a while then pass out and sleep-walk and then crash again thus I don't have to feel alive, low quality just makes me depressed and anxious and feel like everyone looks down on me and that I'm a burden on the world. Worst 'drug' EVER imo!!! Just a stupid plant, get a real drug.

just smoked some pot and ate a big meal, im feeling a lot better. i think part of my problem is that i havent been eating enough in the past week or so. feels better just hearing peoples opinions, think i my ocd took over a little, im a little too worried, im feeling good now. still feel like im kind of missing something but i feel better.

 

[n3ophy7e]

kij, I'm glad to hear you're feeling a bit better now. But please, if you're having symptoms of OCD and depression, lay off the weed man. Seriously, it will just make it worse over time. Perhaps this last bad experience is a warning sign that you should take a break from smoking.

Thats exactly what weed does for me. Only the Grade A buds will work for me, everything else makes me feel like a fish.

I thought I was the only one that heard things on some high quality dro.

You have to remember this is YOUR reaction to the drug while many other including myself smoke it almost daily or on a daily basis and get good reactions from it and even benefit from it. Also why would you say cannabis is not a real drug? It's a very real drug, has a very very long history of use and is the most widely used recreational drug worldwide.

To the OP: Take a break from smoking weed would be my advice. Your obviously getting negative reactions from it so why bother with the stuff?

 

[MakersTable]

Heh the voices are probably the least bad thing about it for me, it's like being in a surround sound cinema and can't pinpoint where the voices, demonic chanting, etc is coming from, kinda funny. Once even thought I could hear a massive nuclear explosion nearby and ducked and hid under a table outside freaked out, noone else was reacting and was told it was just a foot tapping against a bit of metal??

It's a possibility that you have an underlying mental illness and marijuana is exacerbating the symptoms. I wouldn't recommend smoking if I was you. I've been smoking daily for over 6.5 years and routinely for over 7 years and I've never had anything like you describe.


TO THE OP: This happened a few days ago and you're still feeling weird now?

How long after you smoked it did you first start to feel weird?

Mate, if you are hearing voices to that extent when you're high, you should not be smoking weed. That is a sign that something is not functioning correctly in your brain whilst under the influence of marijuana. It is not something to be taken lightly or messed around with. This is your mental health at stake, and you only get one brain...please be sensible and take care of it.

 

[chompy]

Ah, MakersTable has different voices than me. For me its like I can hear my thoughts, like my subconscious reminding me I have clothes in the dryer, dishes to be washed, get the mail etc.

But if I am high and I am in a bad mood, I will hear my self consciousness coming out and mocking me "youre a loser, ha ha, etc"

I'm pretty sure I had PCP laced weed once since I practically went into what could best be described as K hole from a joint I bought off a random dude in Vegas on a trip there. But it didn't last long, about as long as salvia does, maybe 15 to 20 mins?

I got some shit weed and smoked it for a couple months and about halfway thru the batch I pretty much lost all desire for weed and haven't done it in a few years.

That wouldnt be PCP in that case as PCP lasts a pretty long time. Ive only smoked it once over 10 years ago now i think and i was fucked up all that evening and into the next morning. Right after i smoked it i could feel the effects getting worse and i was having those weird dissociative hallucinations and thoughts. Eventually i was fucked to the point where i puked my guts up and couldnt move off the floor without the help of someone holding me up.

So yeah if i ever try it again it's going to be a lower dose. I love ketamine but i can honestly say that angel dust was a horrible experience.

You didn't get laced weed... No one wastes money on that. Also everyone feels shitty after adderall. Sounds like your making this up in your head and the Anxiety is making you think it's actually happening your brain is powerful it can make you think and believe some crazy stuff.

 

[unsettled]

I used to get horrible reactions to weed but I never thought it was the weed, it's a very subjective experience. I eventually had to quit. I think 99.9% of people who claim to have smoked laced weed are just having a bad weed trip.

Last nite I smoked a hit of weed for the first time in a year outside a club in Silverlake and it was perfect, made me want to go and buy a bag but I'm just assuming I got lucky and I'll probably wait another year before I have another hit of weed.

Yeah me too but that's not the physical voices I can hear, that's just me moping and being depressed about things I should do or haven't done and how people see me and stuff, mass anxiety, it seems so plentiful but I don't touch it, ironic huh. For the smokers out there, does it really feel happy, and euphoric? I can't understand it at all and why people would pay money for it and chase it etc. and wish I could feel how it makes other people feel.

Don't worry about my brain, it may ruin my mood for the rest of the day but I wake up fine (well I did when I used it, don't touch it anymore, given up!) Experimentation, eh??

Sorry for bumping an old thread, it just interests me why I get such a strong negative reaction from something almost everyone else apparently gets pleasure from, and why other substances which work on similar receptors have the complete opposite effect.

I've never heard voices on pot and you reminding yourself of something is not "hearing voices" otherwise I'd be hearing voices all day long.

Last I want to say so many people who have bad reactions to pot also have no tolerane to it. There is a MASSIVE difference between a once a month smoker and a once a day smoker. My brothers gf is a "once every 10 years" smoker and of course last time she smoked she freaked out and had a bad experience.

Weed was never fun for me when I had no tolerance, it fucks you up to severly to enjoy it. Believe it or not, I smoked pot everyday for a month hating it JUST BECAUSE I knew by month 2 or 3 I'd have a tolerance and could enjoy it for sleep.
This happens anytime I go back to pot I have to get through that initial high/paranoid out of your mind phase. But now of course I don't get real high, but every single effect of the pot is one I enjoy.
My face gets a bit flush, my body feels a tad warmer and my muscles relax, I become interested and somewhat stimulated by things but at the same time can still sleep at any minute.
So the same person who gets bad experiences from pot is often the same person who enjoys it at a later time. I've never came back to pot after a few years off and thought "wow man this is awesome" I'm usually paranoid out of my mind cause I'm too high and don't know how to act. I personally can't imagine anyone really enjoying the first few times they smoked.

But as far as the OP it definitely sounds like you got something weird or that life factors are triggering things and you're just blaming the pot. I know I DID get pot laced with PCP one time in my life and I knew immediately I had just smoked something more then pot. I mean colors started to all turn red for some reason and I was so far out the scope of a pot high. I stood in front of a mirror for 2 hours just looking at myself and making faces, then went to AC with some friends and had the craziest night of my life.
I later discovered by researching the high it was PCP, although in your case theres about 50 million different things that can be in your pot.
